Global retests are preferred over selective retests for visual field testing. Selective retesting can falsely improve results, while global retests provide a more accurate assessment of visual field status.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Optometry
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Automated perimetry is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring visual field defects.
  • The Octopus perimeter with the JO program is a standard tool for visual field assessment.
  • Different retesting strategies, such as selective and global retests, may influence outcome interpretation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the outcomes of simulated selective retests versus global retests using visual field data.
  • To evaluate the impact of retesting strategies on visual field sensitivity and pathological test locations.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a large dataset of visual field data obtained from the JO program on the Octopus automated perimeter.
  • Simulated selective and global retest strategies on the existing visual field data.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Analyzed the differences in mean sensitivity and the number of pathological test locations between the two retesting methods.

    • Main Results:

    • Selective retesting showed an average increase in mean sensitivity compared to global retesting.
    • Selective retesting resulted in a decrease in the average number of pathological test locations.
    • These observed changes suggest a potential for falsification of results with selective retesting.

    Conclusions:

    • Global retests are recommended over selective retests in automated perimetry.
    • Selective retesting strategies may lead to an overestimation of visual field status.
    • Adhering to global retests ensures the integrity and reliability of perimetric results.
